STATIC-X To Guest On 'Chaos' This Weekend

June 5, 2007

STATIC-X will be the featured guests on Indie 103.1 FM's specialty metal program "Chaos" this coming Sunday, June 10 at 10:00 p.m. PST (1:00 a.m. EST Monday morning).

STATIC-X's new video for the song "Destroyer" is available for viewing online at YouTube. The track comes off STATIC-X's new album, "Cannibal", which shifted more than 30,000 copies in the U.S. in its first week of release to land at No. 36 on The Billboard 200 chart. This represents a slight drop from the 35,000 tally registered by the band's "Start a War" album, which came out in June 2005 and debuted at No. 29.

Comprising 12 of the harshest, most stripped-down tracks STATIC-X have ever recorded, "Cannibal" finds frontman Wayne Static and Co. sounding leaner and meaner than they have in years — a change the vertical-haired guitarist, vocalist and chief songwriter attributes to the back-to-basics approach they took to recording the album. "I think it's the most metal record we've ever made, and it's arguably the heaviest record we've ever made," Static explains. "But with this record, I had a good time just getting back to balls-out screaming and challenging myself vocally, as well as in the songwriting. I felt like I was back working on 'Wisconsin Death Trip', where I focused on stripping away the excess as much as possible to write short, simple, catchy songs."
